16-port SFP managed switch

The Brocade BR-VDX6730-16-F is a managed network switch equipped with sixteen SFP ports. It supports VLAN segmentation, 9600-byte jumbo frames, SNMP monitoring, QoS prioritisation and LACP link aggregation. The unit operates on AC 120/230 V at 50/60 Hz and is supplied new.

Suited for fibre uplink aggregation

This switch fits environments that aggregate multiple fibre links through SFP transceivers and require managed Layer 2 features such as VLANs, QoS and LACP. It is not suitable for deployments that need integrated copper ports or higher port densities.

Primary ports: 16 x SFP

The sixteen SFP interfaces define the switch's connectivity; each port accepts a compatible transceiver for the required fibre type and distance. Confirm that your cabling plan matches this port count and media type before purchase.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 16 SFP transceivers without damaging the ports?

Power off the switch, insert each transceiver straight until it clicks, then connect cables; the step people miss is skipping the click check and forcing a misaligned module.

Which components will need replacement after extended operation?

The internal AC power supply operating at 120/230 V 50/60 Hz and the cooling fans are the parts most likely to require replacement over time.

What throughput limit appears first during sustained 9600-byte jumbo frame traffic?

The 16-port SFP line-rate ceiling is reached before the 9600-byte jumbo frame buffer fills, so aggregate port bandwidth becomes the bottleneck.
